Abstract: The aim of this study is to explore and evaluate the process of discovery, development, future trends and potentials for artificial blood vessels as a medical device and promising technology in cardiovascular treatment. This is the technology that will provide great health benefits to the patients and is more cost effective then traditional methods like coronary bypass. Coronary heart bypass has a number of disadvantages, for example, procedure can not be carried out if patient has not

characteristics accompanied by weight and cost effectiveness, l The influence of various parameters on the crashworthy ability of composite thin-walled structures was examined in detail, but conflicting results were produced. 2~ In Ref. 5 a simple theoretical approach is proposed, based on an equation similar to the buckling load equation for a column on an elastic foundation, which can be used to predict whether a change in energy absorption of a composite tube occurs as a result of changes in geometry

literature on realized volatility. After presenting a general univariate framework for estimating realized volatilities, a simple discrete time model is presented in order to motivate the main results. A continuous time specification provides the theoretical foundation for the main results in this literature. Cases with and without microstructure noise are considered, and it is shown how microstructure noise can cause severe problems in terms of consistent estimation of the daily realized volatility
